Floral motifs in jewelry date back for centuries and were designed in rings, pendants, brooches, and earrings. The most fragile petal, the first bud, a full flower head, and the shape of leaves and stems as they curve and grow have been captured and transformed into precious metals, vibrant gemstones, and vivid enamel work from the 17th century to the present day.

Featuring asymmetrical floral elements and an Etruscan Revival drop, this pendant was likely assembled of well-married components.
